Treatment feedback for Dr Joglekar
Here is some feedback from some for Dr Joglekar's patients over the past 12 months:
"For the first time, my child was listened to by somebody who showed empathy with his suffering. He was treated in a kind and dignified manner and his intelligence was respected throughout. Dr Joglekar made it his business to ensure that my child received a direct benefit from the appointment. His diagnosis was clear, concise and was delivered was delivered in a way that made us hopeful and positive as a family."
